A Technical Service Report on corrosion complaints from Parr, Inc. and Rapid Systems Company about High Purity asbestos (HPO, "Calidria") in metal-substrate resin tape applications. It describes steel Q-Panel tests, moisture and impurity analyses, and SEM/EDAX examination. It concludes that all of the chrysotile products tested promoted corrosion under high humidity, and it recommends predrying the fiber or using a corrosion inhibitor. The exhibit also includes an April 15, 1975 internal memo to G. L. Dickson with physical property data for Carey 7TF-8 asbestos compared with Calidria RG-110 and HPO.
